Adrian Peterson back at practice

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has returned to practice.

Peterson took part in individual drills Thursday. He has missed the last two games because of a sprained left ankle, but coach Leslie Frazier said this week that Peterson was getting "very close" to coming back.

I think Peterson is a great running back, but he had a tendency of getting hurt at Oklahoma and now he is getting hurt in Minnesota. It will continue in my point of view. When was the last time he made it through an entire season, does anyone know? It was last year or this year.

It's good to know that he's making an effort to play again. I love watching Adrian Peterson play as a running back so hopefully he'll be back soon.

Who ever called Peterson injury prone doesn't know what they are talking about. He more than likely would have been back a few games ago, if the games would have meant anything at all. I am glad he didn't hang it up for the year, even with this horrible coaching staff. I would have understood!

Are you kidding. He most definitely is injury prone. Since college he has fought some type of injury almost every year. I don't think you can argue with the statistics. He missed two games his first year, one game in 2010 and three games so far this year. That is out of five season with the Vikings. I would say that says he is injury prone.
